Hi everyone --

I am in the process of trying to make our Sponsored Research newsletter more
"fun" to read.  Is there anyone out there doing a monthly newsletter who
would be willing to share what they are doing with me?  (Especially if you
think yours is very successful!)  Right now, our newsletter is a mechanism
to tell faculty what proposals and awards have happened during the month,
perhaps a funding agency announcement or two, some agency news if any.  I
want to create an environment that truly fosters research, proposal
development, etc.  And I'd like to make it something that people look
forward to receiving.  What has worked for you?

If you are willing to share, can you send a copy of one of your recent
newsletters to my address below?  Thanks.

- Mary
